Q: Odd Stomach Problems

Okay.

I am really 12 years old, but I need serious help.
Please don't skip over this because of my age. I am very mature, and I need help.

I've had this problem for about a month now.

It all started when I was coming back from vacation. I got sick on the plane. It literally felt like bubbles were coming and popping in my stomach. I threw up at the end.

I hadn't eaten that day, and when I went to eat, I wasn't hungry at all.

So, for about a week, when I wanted to eat, I couldn't because my stomach would make this bubbling stuff. To top that, diahrreha {spelling I know}. So on the weekend, I finally told my mom what was going on. She made me eat dry food and sip gatorade.

Then about three days later, I gradually was able to eat more. But still, loose poop.

The bubbles went away, but ever since to today, I get these weird noises in my stomach. I cannot tell whether I am hungry or full anymore, and the poop is sometimes loose.
The noises just come, whenever. And I don't know when i'm hungry or full, and I find that my love for food has kind of decreased.

Is this just because my body is changing?

Will this ever go away?

Please help me!!!

Hello

Sorry that you are feeling sick. I would suggest that you ask your mom to take you to see your family physician. While you are waiting for your appointment, try keeping a food diary of what you eat and how you feel each day. This will help your doctor try to narrow down what is going on with you. This could be a nasty tummy bug. Depending on where you went on vacation, it could be something that was in the water. It could be a lot of things, but the best place to start is with your family doc. If they have further concerns, they may refer you on to a specialist. I hope you find an answer soon, there is nothing more sad than not being able to eat, in my opinion.
